Chapter 167

“A–Alright.” Kimberly dared not to argue.

After hanging up, her phone continued to vibrate from the messages of others, urging her to invite her

wealthy, handsome pursuer to dinner with everyone.

The others had mostly forgotten about this. However, Aurelia happened to mention it again and

coincidentally, Leslie’s photo ended up in the group chat.

This was unfortunate for Kimberly.

Holding her forehead, she became increasingly angry when she recalled how others praised Aurelia,

saying that she looked prettier and how she managed to secure a handsome husband. Who was

Aurelia to compete with her?

Kimberly made a call to Jackson and said, “I told you to look into the son of the founder of that law firm.

Have you found anything?”

“I did, but I don’t think he’s your type,” Jackson said casually.

“It’s fine. Just ask him out for me. I’ll buy him dinner.”

“Huh? Seriously? Are you not even going to pick who you date anymore?” Jackson shocked.

“He obviously can’t compare to you, but I can help ask Aurelia out for you if you help me with this.”

Kimberly was frustrated and didn’t consider Jackson’s words carefully. After flattering him, she

immediately offered an exchange.

Jackson immediately agreed when he heard Aurelia’s name. “Don’t you break your promise.”

“No problem. Make it this weekend, then. I’ll make the reservation.”

“Sure.”

After settling what was most important, she regained her confidence and thought, “Aurelia, let’s see

how smug you can be this time!”

Although the events of the Friday meeting were widely known, the office building never lacked new

topics.

A new subject emerged on Saturday morning: Kimberly’s handsome and wealthy boyfriend promised to

treat her friends to a meal over the weekend.

When Aurelia saw the message, she was taken aback.

Kimberly’s supposed boyfriend was none other than Leslie, so when did Leslie agree to this?

It couldn’t be true because Leslie reminded Aurelia to clear her schedule for tomorrow and join him for

dinner earlier that morning. The reservation for the restaurant had already been made.

Aurelia glanced at Kimberly’s office skeptically.

Just then, Millie’s voice came with a teasing tone. “Don’t bother looking. Kimberly’s boyfriend is a

genuinely handsome and wealthy man, but he’s not interested in married women.”

Aurelia turned to look at Millie. “Your boyfriend has quite unusual preferences.”

“Why you… Aurelia, I know you’re jealous of Kimberly and me, but everyone has their own destiny.

There’s no point in feeling jealous.

“But don’t worry. ‘Kimberly has also invited me to dinner tomorrow. I’ll take more photos for you to see. I

heard we’ll be going to a Michelin–star restaurant.

“The average cost there is three hundred dollars per person. A single meal for us will cost at least two

months of your salary.”

That would mean that a meal there would require a spending of over two thousand dollars. This was

indeed very expensive.

Aurelia was about to say something when other colleagues chimed in. “It’s that expensive? What kind

of restaurant is that?”

“A French restaurant. You guys won’t understand even if I tell you,” Millie said arrogantly.

A colleague scoffed. “You talk as if you understand. Now that you’ve stopped bragging about your own

boyfriend, you start bragging about someone else’s boyfriend?”

Millie blushed at the comment and retorted, “Then, get Kimberly to take you there.”

The two of them ended their conversation with a bit of disagreement.

Aurelia awkwardly withdrew her gaze and decided not to participate in any further discussions.

She was curious about which handsome and wealthy man Kimberly would bring to dinner

tomorrow.

In the midst of her thoughts, her phone rang. It was the owner of the printing factory.

“Ms. Simmons, the preliminary versions of the stand–up sign you’ve requested are ready. I’ve asked a

local delivery service to send it over. The system shows that it has been signed for. Please take a look

and let us know which one you prefer, so we can expedite the production.”

“Alright, I’ll check at the front desk and call you back later.”

After hanging up, Aurelia hurriedly ran to the front desk. The stand–up sign was for providing on–site

guidance to One Technology.

Since she had some doubts about the color, the boss had sent three versions for her to choose

from.

However, when she arrived at the front desk, she couldn’t find the package.

She asked the receptionist, “Where’s the local express package that has been signed for?”

The receptionist looked around and suddenly remembered something. “There was indeed a local

express delivery this morning. When I received it, the vice director happened to pass by. She said that

since it was for you, she would take it with her.”
